Weston House

MMA was commissioned in 2002 to design a grand Adams-style home on a magnificent piece of land west of Boston. True to its origins, the house follows Palladian proportions and utilizes slate, water-struck brick, and limestone to sheath its prestigious shapes. Special care was taken to marry the structure to the land, creating an appropriate plinth from which to perch the home.

The interior assigned an historic hierarchy to ceiling heights, room sizes, entablature and finish so the home felt formal where needed, well-scaled and comfortable. Honduran mahogany doors and windows complimented the weighted millwork and ornate plaster cornices.
